Synopsis
The outlook for Christmas day is becoming much clearer now. To begin with in the early hours pretty much everywhere will be cold enough for something wintry but for the majority in England and Wales, Christmas day looks to be rather dry and sunny albeit chilly. Slightly milder air will try and nudge in for Southern areas during the day but it will barely make much of a difference other than make precipitation more likely to fall as rain. Scotland may stay in the cold air for the whole day. The GFS has hinted at some precipitation to be in Scotland on Christmas day especially around Southern and Central Scotland and perhaps Northern Ireland. Snow looks very likely at the moment with some locally significant accumulations possible particularly on higher ground. For other Nothern and Central areas of the UK the risks remain decent and should anything fall from the sky it could be wintry though it looks mainly dry. Some rain may reach South Western areas towards the second half of the day with a little leading edge sleet or snow a possibility. However it will be a chilly day everywhere with Scotland struggling to reach past 0c for some. Northern and Central areas may reach abot 0-4c. The South may see upto 7c perhaps slightly higher in the far South West. Tomorrow is the second to last update so check back as some changes could still occur. Please note that the white christmas risks are based on snow falling on the day.
